Honoré de Balzac grew up in a middle-class family and quickly ascended to Bourgeoisie status through his writings and garish style. He was a prolific author and published numerous collections of short stories and several humorous novels, many focused on domestic Parisian life. His Maximes are a collection of aphorisms, with advice on politics and love, especially on knowing the minds of women. A lovely copy. Very Good. Very Good with mellowing to the spine and a touch of rubbing to the joints.
